Proximity alerts problem

Draffodx · by **Draffodx** » Tue Mar 31, 2009 1:32 pm

I'm trying to use proximity alerts on my map activity so when someone drives into a car park they know whether they need a disk or to pay for a ticket.

I have the alerts working properly, however when an alert is fired all the other alerts seem to get fired too, so if the user goes into car park 4 the messages for the other car parks get fired too.

here is my code

      setProximityAlert(53.986101, -6.394590, "Car Park 3", "You are in a paid car park, please ensure you have paid for a valid parking ticket for the time you intend to stay parked");

Can anyone suggest a better way to set up the proximity alerts so that they dont all fire when when proximity is fired? or point out where the mistake is in my code?
